Product Description
Parents will do almost anything to get their kids to eat healthier, but unfortunately, they've found that begging, pleading, threatening, and bribing don't work. With their patience wearing thin, parents will "give in" for the sake of family peace, and reach for "kiddie" favorites--often nutritionally inferior choices such as fried fish sticks, mac n' cheese, Pop-sicles, and cookies.

Missy Chase Lapine, former publisher of Eating Well magazine, faced the same challenges with her two young daughters, and she sought a solution. Now in The Sneaky Chef, Lapine presents over 75 recipes that ingeniously disguise the most important superfoods inside kids' favorite meals. With the addition of a few simple make-ahead purees or clever replacements, (some may surprise you!) parents can pack more fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants in their kids' foods. Examples of "Sneaky" recipes include:

-No Harm Chicken Parm
-Power Pizza
-Incognito Burritos
-Guerilla Grilled Cheese
-Brainy Brownies
-Health-by-Chocolate Cookies
-Quick fixes for Jell-O(R)

It's a book chock-full of strategies that will help any parent incorporate better health for the whole family.

 
Customer Reviews for  'The Sneaky Chef: Simple Strategies for Hiding Healthy Foods in Kids' Favorite Meals'
 
Great recipe ideas
I have two similar cookbooks that compliment each other. This book gives moms a kick start on learning healthy recipes and it's also a refreshing new look at helping our kids see ways they can eat foods that are yummy and healthy.
The only drawback is that there is a commitment to preparing all the purees each week or making sure you use them in a timely fashion if you choose to freeze some.
I also don't have a problem with my kids eating fruits and so the fruit purees weren't necessary.
 
Sneaky Food
I was very hopeful that I could get my little one to eat healthy via the Sneaky Chef. Unfortunately, most of the recipes we have tried have failed. Some, I wouldn't even eat. And others ... were quite tasty and were successful. However, just because I was not successful doesn't mean you won't be ... my little one is EXTREMELY picky! I haven't given up yet, I just keep trying different recipes.
 
nothing you can't figure out
well I saw the book on Oprah and thought it would be great to have some recipes to put my puree in. The recipes aren't that creative and after reading through it, it was all pretty common sense. I wouldn't waiste money on buying the book. Just experiment a little for yourself there isn't genious behind any of the recipes.
 
Delicious!
I personally don't own this book but a coworker does and she brings things to work all the time that she has made from these recipes. They are wonderful! I don't eat veggies but I have been eating a lot lately since she started cooking from this book!
 
Missing pages
The recipes in this book were fine, except that my copy was missing 8 pages in the dinner section so it is missing 5 dinner recipes. I contacted the author and the publisher and no one responded to me at all. its been almost a year and still I am missing the main reasons I bought the book for healthy dinner ideas. I would have given the book 3 stars if it were whole and complete. Other than the purees the recipes are very simple and in my opinion kind of bland, but the breakfast options are great.
